Devils advocate here...how do u know its fake

because u don't understand it doesn't mean someone else cant.....never was it said when a person speaks in tongue someone beside him must know it....paul said...speak between urself and God if no one is available to interpreted or understands....because it will always be possible someone won't understand around you...

So why would Christ tell you to do it when it's not beneficial to others? If you carefully study the Bible, you would become ashamed when you shout ehbabababa like a he-goat. Paul told the Corinthian disciples who abused the speaking in foreign languages gift to show off in the church to imagine a visitor comes and sees all the members speaking in foreign languages whether he wouldn't think they had gone crazy.

Reminds me of when I started speaking in tongues. I prayed for it for almost a year and when it came, I was so amazed and overwhelmed lol. Nothing like what I was expecting
When you speak in tongues ... who do you speak to? God? ... if yes... is it because God doesn't understand your native language? Or if you speak to others do they understand what you are saying? Just curious.

I think you need to read the bible more.

, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

Then read Acts 2 which is the fulfillment of the promise of the Holy Spirit.

Don't try to sound woke.

Quite true.. I’m a Christian but I really don’t subscribe to this version of speaking in tongues in modern day Christianity. Until my mum starts speaking Chinese when she’s high in the spirit before I believe anyone is speaking in tongues

Just remember that holy spirit came after Jesus has left, in fact that was His promise before He left. On the day of Pentecost, the disciples received hole spirit and are filled that they are praying, speaking and teaching in diverse tongues.

I think this particular prayer is speaking in the spirit or praying in the spirit which is different from speaking in other tongues- ( had to make the clarification) . When I pray in the spirit, I'm speaking incomprehensible mysteries to God. Incomprehensible because my mind does not understand what I say but it leaves me edified in my spirit and in my body. I literally feel refreshed and hungry for God's word. I pray this type of prayer only to God and not to people. From my observation I think there might be three kinds of praying in the spirit-- 1) praying in other people's language 2) praying in the spirit prophetically which is subject to interpretation 3) praying in the spirit unto God alone

I really thank God for giving me the gift of speaking in tongues, ever since then, my prayer life has changed. Now I can pray for 3 hours, 4 hours without getting tired.
Unless you speak some languages that exists elsewhere, you're only blabbing.
You can't be spewing words that have no meaning and be claiming you're speaking in tongues
Re: How I Started Praying/speaking In Tongues. (my Experience) by Aghaclem67: 10:34am On Jul 14, 2024
3-4 hours praying? Praying for what actually? Time that you supposed to use for something meaningful and productive, you spent praying, repeating the same thing all over again and again. Too bad if I may say. Do you earn anything from praying alone or after the prayers, you go about in commuter buses asking people who are working to earn their living to donate and support your ministry. I weep for Nigerians.

Where did you learn this praying in tongues.

Even in the bible in Acts 2, speaking in tongues clearly referred to people speaking in a human dialet other than than the dailet they were expected to be fluent with.

Stop this stupidity and stop making Christianity a thing for comedians

What's going to church gotta do with anything here? And who told you I belong to any denomination you call "church"? Unlike in your so called religion where you have to worship that rock you face when "praying" in a particular location, my God is not location-based. He is everywhere and hears me from anywhere. I know this will be strange to you. Be careful not to detonate that thing, OK?

Why only 3 to 4 hour limit? The spirit should have made you an unquenchable prayer house running in perpetuity.
Sometimes I wonder why today's Christianity in Nigeria is different from what we were raised to know. I wanted to say joblessness brought this about,but I realize some at workplaces like offices,markets, just everywhere conduct prayers as if God requires their appeasement every second
Re: How I Started Praying/speaking In Tongues. (my Experience) by kelbranty(m): 10:42am On Jul 14, 2024
David0002:
In the bible, speaking in tongues started on the day of pentecost, when the disciples of Jesus or the apostles were baptized with the Holy Ghost. They were speaking in the other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance. You can find it in Acts chapter 2. Read it yourself.
They spoke in "other tongues". From that scripture, we can clearly see that other tongues mean they speaking the language of other people, a known tongue to other people. Because of who they are and where they're from, it was unexpected of them to know or speak the language.

The "other tongues" we hear today, what known tribe is it? Can a common man who is not a Christian understand and interprete what people now call tongue?

Remember, you quoted the scripture and my take is simply from the same scripture you quoted. vs 6-13
